    [SPOILERS] Some thoughts on the Author Only mods from Winter Fantasy

    I think in a way peoples perception of it will also come down to how much of the scenario do they like, or how much did they like it because X or Y ran it. As a person who is likely to have to run it (when it becomes eventually available to be run) Ive got nothing to compare it to yet because...

    [SPOILERS] Some thoughts on the Author Only mods from Winter Fantasy

    THe Zor comment reminds me of a Wizard who was playing late last year in the Mulmaster set games. He refused to join the Cloaks (and managed to convince one he was a member). Then in one hilarious piece at a Dinner party he referred to himself as a Zor (rolled peak for his persuasion) and from...

    Death House and Milestone Rules

    THe reason is the have never been usuable before for AL. THats the only reason thats needed. Gamers being gamers people are going to hear that milestones are now allowed then bang.. they will start to apply it to other AL modules and such. 'Oh I heard it was legal now to use Milestones'. Then...

    D&D 5E (2014) How to run Death House without killing your entire party

    Rubbish. Ravenloft products have been littered with Humor over the years. You CANNOT having a high strung tension packed Horror setting without elements of humor.. otherwise the tension does not work. The humor dosnt have to be over the top. Death House is so named for what went on there many...

    [SPOILERS] Season 4 Overview of Curse of Strahd from Dragon+

    What I find interesting is that its the Dark Powers who decide how much land/people/structures a Dark Lord get. This Witch and her 'new found power'... that power must be a gift of the Dark Powers and that never ever comes without a price. Wouldnt surprise me if the Witch is probably not even...

    Death House - available now on Dragon+

    Sometimes I think that Dragon + and the Wizards team are 2 entirely different entities. A lot of people were caught 'surprised as hell' when Death House appeared in Dragon +.

    Death House and Milestone Rules

    To be honest, I cant say Im a fan of ever allowing milestones.. even IF its just for Death House. mostly because down the line someone will say 'You let us use it back then for Death House... why cant we use it for Calimshans Disco Express' in season 6. I certainly wont be using Milestones...

    D&D 5E (2014) Modding Lost Mine of Phandelver for younger kids

    Why not make their friend a Goblin? There are a few choices. They could come across one of the Dead Horses (and if you dont want the dead horse you could always have them come across a Goblin chasing a Horse with a Knife and Fork). Part 2 can get a little dungeon Crawlery with the attack on...

    DDEX3-10 Quelling the Horde *Spoilers*

    Motorskills: A 4 player Level 1 only table should be able to get it done.. just. They would be playing on V Weak. THe first encounter : 2 Scarecrows Depending on positioning this could be tough. I find my groups generally split up to search which could mean 1 or 2 characters are a little cut...

    D&D 5E (2014) Sleeping PCs and threat

    My current Out of the Abyss group for like 5 sessions NEVER set Watches. Ever. They just completely ignored it. It wasnt till we got a new player join who was incredulous that it didnt happen, that it start to happen.

    I hate problem players

    The post above reminds me of a group I used to dm for back in High school/just after. We were .. supposed to take it in turns to run games but of course because I was 'good' at it, It ended up being me for 2 years. Then when it was someone elses turn, they started and then 3 weeks later 'I cant...

    I hate problem players

    Hey.. all this badmouthing Australia is downright racist. Esp since I was not involved already! Is your 5e game set in Australia? How could he have an Australian accent for a character if there is no Australia in the setting? Having Australia in your setting however would be cool.. Drop Bears...

    Lost Mines AL

    Kalani: I have always found your input in both the Facebooks and forums far far more patient and concise than mine (and way more accurate to boot). Since the early days of Hoard and onwards, Ive always made sure Ive never Added new monsters that arnt in the module/scenario only added more of...

    Curse of Strahd Will Have A Map Pullout Poster

    Benji: Yeah I thought that interview with Tracy was great, as I never normally hear from him at all. I would have like Laura to have been there too for her insight too. As he talked about the Abusive Lover It clicked what he was talking about and while later editions of Ravenloft kinda turned...

    DM rewards for running Adventurer's League - what are your thoughts?

    Ive been in other Living Campaigns and the one thing that has always glared out to me is how often 'locked in' past Scenarios rulings have been. I wont name the campagin but in one of the scenarios the exp and gold rewards were wildly off target (by a large magnitude). Players knew it, Dms...

    D&D 5E (2014) How are Drow viewed in the 5E Forgotten Realms?

    Oh I agree, not all live on the Surface now. Its just even the ones on the surface get the flowback from the nasty ones that live below the ground. Ive had a couple in my games since Ive started to run AL , one was played very humanlike (the player essentially went .. cool.. DROW!) and got...
